YEAR-ROUND CLUBS & DISCUSSION GROUPS
FOR AGES 9-18

We run small online group sessions that are ideal for those who already have an interest in the area, want to explore new topics or those that need a little encouragement to explore ideas; these groups are aimed at being enjoyable and sociable opportunities that also help develop academic skills.

 

These small groups sessions are for a maximum of 6 children per group. No prior knowledge or skill is necessary but all students are expected to be willing and open to having a go. Groups are set according to children's similar abilities and so no-one should ever feel they can't participate!
